SQL & PL/SQL :: Updating Column In Every Row Except For The First
Jan 16, 2012
I am trying to find a way to update all of the rows in a table for a column EXCEPT for the very first row. I am not sure if this can be done while I enter my SET parameter or not. I have also thought about using an EXCEPTION in a stored procedure. For example, say I have the table listed below:
SQL> select * from example1;
CODE1 I_ID CODE2 J_ID NAME1 DATE1
----- -------------------- ----- -------------------- -------------------------------- ---------------
A 100 A 200 John 20111225
A 100 A 300 John 20111225
A 100 A 500 John 20111225
A 100 A 400 John 20111225
A 100 A 250 John 20111225
A 100 A 700 John 20111225
A 100 A 800 John 20111225
A 100 A 900 John 20111225
A 100 A 1000 John 20111225
A 100 A 1150 John 20111225
A 100 A 1275 John 20111225
A 100 A 3000 John 20111225
12 rows selected
I am wanting to update the table so that if there were more than 3 J_id's on the table for the same I_id then it will set all of the code1's and code2's to a C except for the very first one. Such as:
SQL> select * from example2;
CODE1 I_ID CODE2 J_ID NAME1 DATE1
----- -------------------- ----- -------------------- -------------------------------- ----------------
A 100 A 200 John 20111225
C 100 C 300 John 20111225
C 100 C 500 John 20111225
C 100 C 400 John 20111225
C 100 C 250 John 20111225
C 100 C 700 John 20111225
C 100 C 800 John 20111225
C 100 C 900 John 20111225
C 100 C 1000 John 20111225
C 100 C 1150 John 20111225
C 100 C 1275 John 20111225
C 100 C 3000 John 20111225
12 rows selected
I have done some searches and haven't seen any results.

USERNAME VARCHAR2(50),
PASSWORD VARCHAR2(20)
)
***
[Code]..
1. In this table, how to update the Nth row, how can I do it
2. Now I need to add USERID in this table,which will get value from 1 to max no. of rows. I do not want to drop the table and again re create it adding USERID or update each row manually. Is there any other way to add USERID and have IDs from 1 to max IDs.

I created a table with a column "id" and values for this column is attached a sequence. And now i need, if any value deleted from the table the column "id" will need to be sequence.
ex:
id name
-- -------
1 xxxx
2 yyyy
3 zzzzz
4 pppp
5 rrrrrr
if i delete
delete from test where id=4;
then automatically.. "id" column values will again in sequence... like this
id name
-- -------1 xxxxx
2 yyyyy
3 zzzzzz
4 rrrrrr
note: in the above if i delete the id=4 from the table again it will have be in sequence and if i inserted the again it has to take the next value continue to sequence....
ex : insert to test values(seq_name.nextval,'tttt');
id name
-- -------
1 xxxxx
.
.
.
4 rrrrr
5 ttttt

I have learnt that indexes slow down the DML operations. My question is specific to an update statement. Is it going to be slower if Im trying to update an indexed column on my table or it is slower overall (even when a non-indexed column is getting updated in the table) How does it behave in case of inserts & delete operation.

I have a task to update one of the rows in a table (having only 2 columns, number and long) which is long data type. We are on Oracle 10g. Not sure how to use update for a long data type column.
I have tried using dbms_metadata_util.long2varchar, but still not getting what I want.

I need to update the current column with sum of the previous column values. Following are the creation scripts
DROP TABLE TEST_LOG;
CREATE TABLE TEST_LOG
(
[Code]....
Above query is working fine to retrieve the previous column values.But when we are updating the SUM_PRE_COLS column with those values it's not working fine.
I tried by using the following query
UPDATE TEST_LOG T SET SUM_PRE_COLS =
( SELECT LAG(T2.KEY0, 1, 0) OVER(ORDER BY T2.KEY0) + LAG(T2.KEY1, 1, 0) OVER(ORDER BY T2.KEY0)
FROM TEST_LOG T2 WHERE T2.ROWID= T.ROWID);

We've an accounts table that basically represents hotel chains & brands. an example shown below.
account_id chain_id brand_id service1
NULL NULL 111
NULL NULL 122
NULL NULL 11
Here I want to update the chain_id & brand_id which are currently NULL in order to make every row eligible for further processing.
There is another table(say chain_brand) which maintains the relationship between chain_id and brand_id. one chain_id can have multiple brand_ids eg.,
chain_id brand_id
101 2011 101
2012 102 2020
Now I need a script that could randomly pick values from chain_brand table and update the accounts table. condition is those values should be unique for an account_id eg.,
account_id chain_id brand_id service1
101 2011 111 101
2011 122 102 2020 11
so each account can be attached to only one chain_id and one brand_id.

I have a non-base-table item which I want to update in the pre-update trigger of the current block.
If the content of the field exceeds 4000 characters, i get the error message
ORA-01461: can bind a LONG value only for insert into a LONG column.
The code is
update tab set long_col = :formsblock.long_col
where tab.tabpk = :formsblock.foreign_tabpk;
Workarounds would be,
1.) to delete the old dataset and insert the new one:
delete from tab
where tab.tabpk = :formsblock.tabpk;
insert into tab (tabpk, long_col) values
(:formsblock.foreign_tabpk, :formsblock.long_col);
or 2.) to change the Item from a non-database item to a database item and use the internal update of the forms-module, but both workarounds are not very satisfying.
Do you know another way to update the LONG-column within the pre-update trigger (or any other PL/SQL part of forms)?

i was just working on one of my SQL assignments from my database management course, and thus far, this is the first that I just can't figure out. The question is:
Quote: Increase the credit limit of any customer who has any order that exceeds their credit limit. The new credit limit should be set to their maximim order amount plus $1,000. This must be done in 1 SQL statement
The bolded part is what I'm having trouble with.
What I have thus far:
UPDATE Customers
SET CreditLimit = 1000 + (SELECT MAX(Amount) FROM Orders, Customers WHERE Cust = CustNum)
WHERE CustNum IN (
SELECT Cust
FROM Orders
WHERE Cust = CustNum
AND CreditLimit < Amount);
So there's two tables that I'll be working with, Customers (the table I'm updating), and Orders (the table where the order amount is found). With the code I have so far, it does seem to be updating the correct tables at the very least, but not with the correct values. It's essentially updating the CreditLimit column with the new value of 1000 + the maximum amount in the order table, which is very close to what I want it to do, but I want it to be 1000 + the maximum amount for that specific customer.
CustNum is the primary key for the Customers table, and Cust is the foreign key that links each together.
(about the formatting, it looked much prettier in SQL Worksheet Plus)

Ok, CLOB columns are such a hassle.
I have a variable in my script: v_field1 VARCHAR2(32000);
This is part of a cursor record:
v_mf_table IS TABLE OF mf_detail%ROWTYPE INDEX BY BINARY_INTEGER;
v_mf_record v_mf_table;
I use a FORALL to insert the data into a table:
FORALL x IN v_mf_record.FIRST .. v_mf_record.COUNT
INSERT INTO monthly_mf_snapshot VALUES v_mf_record(x);
BUT! v_field1 is > 4000 characters. Does this trash my changes of using FORALL? Do I need to deal with 4k chunks in an UPDATE instead?

I have two tables,
CREATE TABLE repos
(
rep_key VARCHAR(10) NOT NULL,
base_term VARCHAR(100) NOT NULL,
blt_key INTEGER NOT NULL
[code]...
gloss table has the unique set of base_term as in repos. BLT_KEY will be primary_key in gloss and foreign key in repos.
Data in gloss table
BLT_KEY BASE_TERM
1 base1
2 base2
3 base3
Now, I need to update the BLT_KEY in gloss to matching entries in repos. Can I do that in a update on select statement? like,
UPDATE repos
SET blt_key = (SELECT gloss.blt_key
FROM repos,
gloss
WHERE repos.base_term = gloss.abase_term) This throws subquery returns more than one row.
And the end of update the repos table should look like,
REP_KEY BASE_TERM BLT_KEY
M001 base1 1
M002 base1 1
M003 base2 2
M004 base1 1
[code]....
Also I need a single query which can update on select as the no of records to be updated are more than 90000 in repos. So two step process would slow down the process

Im looking for the posibility to update some records using new id with the column values with another id
example
the table contains these records:
id gross net
========================
7 0,1 0,0507749
8 0,2 0,1015499
9 0,5 0,2538748
10 0,83 0,4214
11 0,85 0,4315873
[Code]....
and I would like insert the same gross and net column values of ids 7 to 16 into columns with the ids 40 to 49 in the same order. therefore I would like to obtain the result that I describe below:
id gross net
========================
7 0,1 0,0507749
8 0,2 0,1015499

I am trying to write a control file that will read information from two INFILES and update two tables with the different information via SQL Loader. I am using Oracle 11g on Linux. i am not sure how to take the result from the first insert query and use it as input to the second insert query. Currently I have the following control file:
LOAD DATA
INFILE 'table1.dat'
INFILE 'table2.dat'
APPEND
INTO TABLE table1
WHEN tid='1'
FIELDS TERMINATED BY ","
OPTIONALLY ENCLOSED BY '"'
(pid "pid.nextval", p_fname, p_lname, tid)
[code]....
The pid in the second insert query should be taken from the pid generated in the first insert query. However, I do not know how to do this. Does SQL Loader run the first insert query for all entries in the table1.dat file and then the second insert query or will it do one record at a time? Here are my INFILES:
table1.dat
,John,Doe,1
,Joe,Smith,1
table2.dat
10,,abc,1,
11,,xyz,1,
The second field in table2.dat should be taken from the result of creating a record in the table1.dat. Is this something that can be achieved using SQL Loader? The first part of the control file is successful, I can see the table being updated with the contents on table1.dat, but the second query fails.

I have made a correlated update statement using rowid. Find my attachment. Its updating all columns which i wanted but issue is that its not updating in 1st commit.
Suppose 6 rows is to be updated, then in 1st commit its updating 1 record, then in 2nd commit its updating 2nd record and so on. And in Toad its showing 6 rows updated in 1st commit, then 5 rows updated in 2nd commit and 1 rows updated in last record. I want that all records to be updated in first commit only.

Oracle 11.2 - The goal is to create a trigger on table and anytime an update, delete or insert is done on the table, write values to a second table. I have the trigger and it works except it is not loading my col1/PK values. I understand I need to do a new/old value. Col1 is my PK on Table that I want to load anytime there is an update/delete/insert on the table. How do I code the old/new variable?
My
CREATE OR REPLACE TRIGGER TRIGGER_NAME
AFTER INSERT OR UPDATE OR DELETE
ON TABLE_NAME
FOR EACH ROW
DECLARE
v_col1 TABLE_NAME.COLUMN%TYPE;

I have an application that creates files using the utl_file package. It works fine but one of the lines in the file should hold the number of bytes in the file (on a line formatted like 'FileSize: 2104'). Unfortunately this line is not the last line of the file and the lines that follow it are variable in length.
My approach therefore is as follows:
1. Write the 'FileSize: ' line during file creation.
2. Write the remaining lines of data to the file (but don't close it).
3. Use utl_fgetattr to find the file size.
4. Go back and find the 'FileSize' line I need to update, using get_line to read it into the buffer.
5. Append the filesize (plus the number of characters that the variable I use to store the filesize value) to the buffer string.
6. Write the line back to the file using put_line.
However I keep getting invalid file operation errors however I try to re-access the file...
PROCEDURE setUtlFileSize (pFileName IN VARCHAR2,
pFileHandle IN utl_file.file_type) IS
vbFileExists BOOLEAN;
viFileLen NUMBER;
viFileBlockSize NUMBER;
vsFileRecord VARCHAR2(2000);
[code].......
This gives me the following output.... (for two files)... currently I am using some generic exception handling just to show me the error.
File Length: 2106
File Position: 0
-29283,ORA-29283: invalid file operation
File Length: 497
File Position: 0
-29283,ORA-29283: invalid file operation
Process exited.
Two things here concern me: The File Position suggests that the current offset position is set to the start of the file... but since I had not closed or performed any other operation since the last put_line and fflush (which are used to add lines to the file) I had expected that the offset position would be the same as the file length?
Secondly: Even if the position had been reset to the start of the file I don't understand why the get_line gives me the oracle error.

I'm trying to write procedures to make updating account owners and the like easier for a group of DBA's.
What I want to do, is create a procedure that displays the changes live.
e.g. If I changed the owner of 5 users from owner 100 to owner 200 it will display:
User test1 owner changed from 100 to 200
User test2 owner changed from 100 to 200
User test3 owner changed from 100 to 200
User test4 owner changed from 100 to 200
User test5 owner changed from 100 to 200
I can not get a loop to work to save my life. Here's what I have to update the account so far...
PROCEDURE UPDATE_OWNER (OWNER NUMBER, NEW_OWNER NUMBER) IS
BEGIN
UPDATE ACCOUNT_TRACKING
SET ACCOUNT_OWNER=NEW_OWNER WHERE ACCOUNT_OWNER = OWNER
AND ACCOUNT_TYPE !='P';
DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE ('Account Owner '||OWNER||' Changed to '||NEW_OWNER);
END UPDATE_OWNER;
